Comment (by RattleyCooper):

 I created a wrapper program that creates a window handle, can launch
 ffmpeg, catch the `WM_CLOSE` event sent by the `taskkill` command, and
 then send "q" to the ffmpeg processe's `stdin` to shut it down gracefully.
 So it is now possible to handle a `taskkill` gracefully on windows.
  Here is a link to the repository.
 https://github.com/Wykleph/ffmpeg_wrapper  - I am not sure if this
 qualifies as "fixed".
